Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting 130 grn TTSX in 300 Win Mag

Lets define long range a bit. For most hunters, say 99% of us, 300 yards is a LONG ways out there. Very few should shoot out at 400 or even 500 yards. Even for those who practice at such ranges very few shots are offered at ranges past 200 yards in the real world of hunting and a 300 yard capable rifleman will bring home a lot of game if he or she is also a good hunter. As was said a moment ago, OP stated out to 300 yards or so which is a reasonable limitation and a practical limit for all but the very best game shots. For HIS question, and THIS application, the 130gr TTSX at 3500fps will perform wonderfully. OP can sight in to be dead on at 300 and still be within just a very few inches of line of sight or hold all the way there or a bit past that. Buy 'em, load 'em and go slay a BIG freakin elk with with said ammo!
